Their facebook page advertises 'Lemon Kush' which I've found to be about 10% THC. What kind of experience does 10 percent THC provide? Doesn’t sound like it’s going to be “Happy Pizza” quality. ????

A foreigner will be an easy mark though Various fanatics in the USA have been trying for years to criminalize going to Thailand for “Play for Pay”. I’m surprised they’ve never been successful. The US managed to push FBAR off on the Thai Banking System. Banks really hate those reporting requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the Kush crosses run 16-22% The 'Lemon Kush' my friend grew was 1/2 the potency of 'Critical Orange Punch' or 'Red Diesel'. But the seeds were very cheap, probably because nobody bought them a second time. If you're gonna spend 3 months growing the plants, why would you grow an inferior strain? Not all that keen on White Widow or Amnesia either, they also appear 'weak'. Edited May 29, 2022 by BritManToo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously extracts and derivative products can't be used or consumed. Does anyone know definitively? What do you think will happen with a deeply Conservative military government that took apparent glee in closing entertainment venues for the past two years? Answers on a postcard.

Mr Meeseeks Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 On 5/22/2022 at 8:29 PM, ThaiVisaCentre said: The article is not saying that home-grown plants with > 2% are considered narcotics. It is saying in extract form if they have more than 2% then it would still be considered a narcotic. With the articles wording it would appear that all high-thc strains are fine, as long as not extracted into concentrates. By the time this is finalized by the FDA this may change. It's quite clear in Thai. Anything over 2% THC i. e. buds, hashish, oil etc is a narcotic which is still illegal. Anything under 2% THC which is the plant itself, leaves, stems etc. is legal. Pattaya is currently awash with ganja though, places selling joints, edibles etc. way beyond the 'allowed' THC percentages, with no police action so this is where people are hoping full legalisation will happen. I think they are going to be disappointed. I hope I'm wrong but I just can't see that happening under this government. Anyone that thinks you can just grow 6 plants and have a kilo bag of bud sitting there and the Police won't do anything clearly hasn't been in Thailand long enough. ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Have they ever clearly defined that the use of ganga for recreational purposes will be completely legal, and that the spectacularly corrupt RTP will be instructed to STOP making arrests, and attempting to extract 100,000 baht bribes from people, to avoid arrest?

Alcohol is great (not talking about the swill that's passed off for beer/spirits here) but sadly some do not know their limits and cannot handle it. I've had some very fine red wines/beers/stouts/ales/whiskey/whisky etc in my life as have millions of others over the times. Ban it? NUP. Back to the days of prohibition you think? Of course your statement is somewhat contradictory as in if you legalise drugs you can't ban alcohol. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JustThisOnePostOnly Posted May 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) Urine tests become obsolete. Unless I am mistaken, that was previously the primary means of enforcement. Is it likely the that they roll out some all-new means of enforcement? Some kind of mobile chem lab where they do the level of analysis necessary to discern THC concentration? I am guessing not. Complicated and expensive and too many false positives. So really, unless you are in retail or are a total muppet who openly flaunts recreational use, I'd say that there is no cause for paranoia. Be kind, be respectful, and above all else, use responsibly and be a better person. The whole world needs to chill. If anybody can show the way it'd the Thais.

JackGats Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Could somebody tell me what "extracted substance with more than 2 per cent of THC" means? An extract would range from say 30 to 100% if it is to qualify as a useful extract. If the extract turns out below 2% the plant itself must contain vanishing amounts.

While NORML strongly opposes drug use on the job, we think no one should be forced to submit to urine testing, especially for marijuana. Aside from launching a legal challenge, your best defense against urine testing is to be clean. Unfortunately, this may be difficult since urine tests may detect marijuana 1-5 days after an occasional use, 1-3 weeks in regular users, and 4-6 weeks in multiple daily users. Since urine tests do not detect the psychoactive ingredient of marijuana, THC, but rather other, nonactive metabolites, they in no way measure impairment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritManToo Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 From the other cannabis post .............................. "The department will put suggestions forward to the Ministry of Public Health in an upcoming meeting on May 30TH. The proposed penalty for those causing “public nuisance” by cannabis smoke should firstly be warned. Failures to stop, could result in up to one month in jail, a fine of up to 2,000 baht, or both." So firstly warnings, then a fine up to 2,000bht for repeated offences. I'm OK with that! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the RTP it is rarely about justice. It is usually about cash. Always remember one thing. They are not law enforcement, but rather individual franchisees. Revenue collection agents, working their own franchise, and of course a percent goes to their commanding officer.

Not all that keen on White Widow or Amnesia either, they also appear 'weak'. In this day and age I would say its impossible to judge what a "strain" will give you. There are no real IBL cannabis strains as far as i'm concerned so these strain labels are very hit and miss and if you plant 10 seeds you are liable to get 10 different phenos as everything has been crossed and back crossed to buggery. The THC % on a seed pack is generally b@ll@cks and one would only ever get anywhere near these percentages if you are growing in prime conditions anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
